I did urban ministry back in 2012 in New York City. There was a lot of homeless there and we were told "do not give money to them." So, instead, I approached them, asked them if they wanted food, and took them out to any restaurant they wanted to.
- Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
- Shoulder YOUR part, not theirs. If you're shouldering both parts of the dating relationship, it's time to move on.

I have a speech impediment.
MOST people think I'm just European.
But, then, I get the few jerks that think I'm mentally slow.
And, it more just makes me irritated that people are still living in that high school mindset.
If a man has assumptions about me without getting to know me, then I move on and walk away.
If someone is going to put an assumption on you, and there's no changing of their mind, it's not a "you" issue, but a "them" issue.
